UK man suffers from ‘chronic déjà vu’

A 23-year-old British man stopped watching TV, reading newspapers and listening to radio because of ‘chronic déjà vu’ causing him to believe he’s seen it all before.

The man claims he has been ‘retrieving past memories’, not merely finding them familiar, and says he’s been stuck in a ‘time loop’ for the past 8 years!

Doctors are stumped, as the man does not suffer from any neurological conditions prevalent in those who suffer from déjà vu on a regular basis.

Nobody knows the exact cause of déjà vu, but many believe it’s a phenomenon that arises from activity within the temporal lobe. One such theory is that mistimed firing of neurons causes a temporary glitch which affects the brain’s ability to process incoming information.
